First thoughts on the Transformers 3: Dark of the Moon trailer....admittedly I didn't enjoy it as much as I would have if Revenge of the Fallen had never existed, and Dark of the Moon was actually part II of the triad.  Having a great trailer and a seriously sub-par movie tends to have a deflating effect, like "you made me hopeful once and blew that.  How can I go through this again?"

Has anyone heard anything about Megatron?  Surprisingly, the Decepticon leader hasn't appeared in any of the two trailers released yet; although, Starscream has.  Will the third trailer have something on the ultimate bad guy?

Will Hollywood stop taking advantage of 'suspension of belief'?  Even with fantasy, there's a way to do these things, guys.  I may not know what that way is - but I know what it's not.  Who am I kidding; It's all my fault, and yours too.  Why?  'Cause I'm going to see Dark of the Moon when it opens anyway!

In case you were wondering who the old grizzled, Moon-bound Transformer is; no, it's not Jetfire from Revenge of the Fallen (that robot is sleeping the good sleep.  Or, in any case, the last sleep).  From what I can tell from rumors, it's Sentinel Prime, and he's a good guy.

Some of the most plausible suggestions regarding the plot (from things seen on the grounds of the Chicago set, such as graffitied walls, etc) involve the discovery of Sentinel Prime's ship on the Moon, which is supposed to harbor the kind of stuff over which wars are fought.  Humans may turn against the Autobots, fearing that their presence is more dangerous than beneficial (and really, there's no argument there.  Didn't Optimus Prime basically broadcast an invitation - as a nonresident alien, no less - to "any and all Autobots still out there to come to Earth"?  I mean, what self-respecting Decepticon wouldn't be able to intercept such a message!?)

Cybertron Transformers appreciates the support of its fans.  Thank you!!
